Let’s all be real, only teens and fangirls went crazy for One Direction. In reality, nobody takes their music seriously.

Again, I’ll confess …

If there’s a popstar that I believe could make a hit after hit without tiring the general audience, I will probably say it is Katy Perry. Her presence in the music industry is pretty much felt in the span of almost a decade, (gosh it makes me feel old) …

Overview —“ 1984, the final album that Van Halen released with David Lee Roth, was definitely not a disappointing final record with the original front man. I’m not a huge fan of Van Halen, although I do like some of their records and I actually managed to see them …
